Default Now I know how Deuce owners feel...

Starting looking for some new bars for my Springer. Much of what I am finding indicates fits for most FXST*** models with "(except FXSTS)".

Any good suggestions for places to look for bars? I want to keep the stock riser of use a set of dog bones. I want apes that are the same height as Stock DWG bars or maybe a few inches higher. Further complicating my search, center width must be <=10". Anything wider and I have tank clearance issues (3" tank lift installed).

Oh yeah... Springers need a 4.75" knurling center spacing, right?

OK, found a set of 12" apes. For a 2006, will +6 throttle, brake, clutch cables and +6 control wire ext be enough with stock risers?

Already relocated turn signals so don't need to worry about them.

Get a piece of thin wire and route it like the cables.Then measure the wire and see how long the cables need to be.
